Ch. 642Trouble at the Barbecue Restaurant
Gigue and Naruto ate barbecue while Asuma and Kurenai watched them, leading to a confrontation that drew in the Third Hokage. The Third Hokage apologized and negotiated with Gigue, who agreed to release Kurenai in exchange for having the Fourth Hokage’s former home cleared out.
- Gigue grilled meat for Naruto and reflected that Naruto saw him as a father figure, while deciding not to free himself by absorbing the Nine-Tails.
- Asuma told Kurenai he suspected Naruto’s Shadow Clone was formed from the Nine-Tails’ chakra, and Gigue invited them to come closer.
- Gigue restrained Kurenai and threatened Asuma when he stood up to confront him.
- The Third Hokage arrived, apologized for spying on Gigue and Naruto, and ordered Asuma to apologize and pay their bill.
- Gigue agreed to release Kurenai if the Third Hokage had the Fourth Hokage’s former home cleared out.
